Fight Like A Girl

Endometriosis sisters J and S posted a website on their social networking pages, which I want to share here.

The site is called  Fight Like A Girl, and was launched in April, 2010, according to the domain’s whois information, so it’s pretty new on the web. I like the site because it appeals to young women who are battling serious illnesses, including endometriosis. Some of the other illnesses covered on their site include cancer, diabetes, lupus, chronic fatigue syndrome, and fibromyalgia. There’s more, so check out the site today!

To quote directly from their website,

“The Fight Like A Girl Club was formed to provide a place where women battling cancer and other diseases, survivors, and loved ones can come together to share stories, experiences, hope, and encouragement with one another, a place where you can come to relax and devote time to yourself, a place where you feel accepted and cared about, a place to soothe your soul with meditations, poems, and inspirational quotes, to release your fears and anxieties through sharing and writing, to put your problems on the backburner while playing games and puzzles, to request Prayer from others who truly care, a place to CLAIM YOUR POWER!”

“Our mission is to provide a loving, safe, and nurturing environment where women battling cancer and other life-limiting diseases, survivors, and loved ones can come together to share stories, experiences, advice, encouragement, and hope with one another. Men are warmly welcomed, as well.”

“Our vision is that through sharing and connecting with one another, each of us will discover and claim the Power that is already within us.  Through cultivating and bringing together all of our ‘individual’ Power, we will create a ‘collective’ Power that will defeat cancer and disease once and for all.”
